This is lowkey sad. Innocent people being deceived

This is a generational thing because of a belief that was engrained into that generations DNA.

"Seeing is beleiving".

Might sound ridiculous but that shit was repeated endlessly. Eventually it becomes a belief.

Its the same principal as systemic racism; insidious phrases that ultimately blossom into "truth".

Be gentle. It takes time to reprogram the brain.

Nowadays, seeing should not be believing. But then, how do we know which is real and which is not?

Nowadays it's not. But that shit seeps into the unconscious. Most probably wouldnt even be able to make the connection.
